Reference: SC 8/52/2570
Description:
Petitioners: John de Handlo (Haudlo, Hadlow); Maud de Handlo (Haudlo, Hadlow) wife of John de Handlo.
Name(s): de Handlo (Haudlo, Hadlow); de Handlo (Haudlo, Hadlow), John; Maud
Addressees: King and council
Nature of request: John de Handlo and Maud his wife state that Philip [Burnel] and Maud his wife were seised of certain tenements given in free marriage by Richard Fitz Alan, Earl of Arundel, Maud's brother; which tenements Maud leased to Edmund Earl of Arundel after Philip's death. Because they ought to descend to Maud Handlo, daughter of Maud and Philip, John and Maud brought a writ of formedon against Edmund after Maud's death, but Edmund died while it was being pleaded. The tenements came into the king's hand, and he gave them to Roger de Mortemer, formerly Earl of March. They are now again in the king's hand through his forfeiture, and John and Maud ask him to consider their right, and do justice to them.
Nature of endorsement: The heir of the Earl of Arundel is restored to his lands, because of which they are to be at common law.
Places mentioned: Conede (Cound), Shropshire; Frodesley, Shropshire; Kenley, Shropshire; Acton Pigott, Shropshire; Eaton Mascott, Shropshire
People mentioned: Richard Fitz Alan, Earl of Arundel; Philip [Burnel (Burnell)], father of Maud de Handlo; Maud [Burnel (Burnell)], mother of Maud de Handlo; Edmund [Fitz Alan], Earl of Arundel; Roger de Mortemer (Mortimer), Earl of March
Note: The restoration of the Earl of Arundel's son is the result of a petition presented in parliament on the Wednesday before the feast of St Lucy, 4 Edward III (December 1330) (Rot. Parl. vol. II pp.55b-56a (no.13), so the petition must date from around this time, but after Roger de Mortimer's forfeiture in November of that year: and so would appear to have been presented to the parliament of November 1330.
